Continuing the Why Pink Floyd? campaign, Wish You Were Here now receives the lavish Immersion box treatment. As you can see below there are three sections comprising this review: 'The Winter of our Discontent' is a concise overview of Pink Floyd's 1974-75 time period with some interesting quotes and recollections. It also makes references to the content on the Experience and Immersion editions of Wish You Were Here. Pink Floyd historians can safely skip over this. The second section, 'Games for May' covers the current music business in relationship to the Floyd, Surround Sound from past to present, plus aspects of digital technology particularly as they relate to the Wish You Were Here Immersion box. This is brand new sonic territory for Pink Floyd, so I thought it deserved a much closer look. The third section is the actual '
WYWH Immersion Review' with all the information you'll need to know before making a potential purchase. So we won't feel disappointed if you skip ahead to read this! It you haven't made a decision yet, hopefully this review will help you decide which edition, any or all, of the 2011
WYWH editions to purchase. To complicate matters we also have the Super Audio CD (SACD) edition of
WYWH, to be reviewed here shortly. As we close 2011, Pink Floyd fans certainly have a myriad of quality releases to consider for their music collections.
